That’s why you should always get the background down as quickly as possible.įor the background in this digital painting, I used a big soft brush and just added some white to represent the light. Here is an example of the same color squares, and if I add a background after finishing a painting, then the mood will change dramatically depending on the color I choose. It all comes down to how one color affects the other. I learned it from my painting professor at my university, and he would always say that all of the major colors need to be on the page before you proceed. One of the biggest tips I can give you is to lay all of the major colors down right away! If you are still learning rendering, saturation and so on, then maybe going with black and white is a great idea at first! So if you can – go with colors right away! Sometimes I would start with the black and white rendering and then add colors on top, but I feel like sometimes it takes away the liveliness of my paintings. The next step for this painting is laying down the major colors. And at the end of the painting, I’ll be adding a few strands of hair here and there for a more believable effect. That’s why I always start with the big bold shapes first and then narrow it down as I go.Īs for the hair – try to find the big shapes as well!Īs you can see I started with big shapes, then a bunch of smaller ones. One of the biggest issues I see beginner artists face is they focus on a little part of the drawing first trying to get it perfect, but then it’s harder to go back and the big picture. I’m not using any grids, lines or anything of the sort just eyeballing as I go, and trying to put the big shapes down first. I began with a simple sketch starting with lighter strokes and then strengthening them as I feel more confident about the lines I’m putting down.Īs you might’ve noticed I chose a brownish reddish color to start, as I love starting with any color rather than black, I find it helps me keep the drawing phase more lose.
